Most students talk about how the PM Laptop Scheme 2025 is giving free laptops for study and freelancing.
But one of the biggest hidden benefits? It’s saving students thousands of rupees every semester — and no one is talking about it!
Let’s break down how receiving a free laptop from the government is actually reducing the financial burden on students across Pakistan.
1. No More Internet Café or Computer Shop Charges
Before receiving a laptop, many students had to:
-
Pay hourly at internet cafés to complete assignments
-
Spend on print shops just to use Microsoft Word or Excel
-
Borrow or rent laptops for projects
Now, students with a PMYP laptop do everything from home — for free.
Estimated savings: Rs. 2,000–5,000 per month
2. Access to Free Software and Tools
Most PM laptop devices come with:
-
Pre-installed MS Office
-
Access to Google Workspace tools
-
Built-in antivirus and essential programs
This saves students from buying expensive software subscriptions.
Estimated savings: Rs. 10,000+ annually
3. Attending Online Classes Without Paying Extra
Many students used to borrow a device just to attend Zoom or LMS classes.
Now they can:
-
Join lectures anytime
-
Download recorded sessions
-
Submit assignments on time
No more paying friends or cybercafés.
Convenience + cost-free access = stress-free studies
4. No Need to Buy Expensive Notes or Guides
With internet access on their laptops, students can:
-
Download free PDF books
-
Watch YouTube tutorials
-
Use ChatGPT and AI tools for study help
-
Join online forums and study groups
They no longer need to buy printed notes or attend paid academies.
Estimated savings: Rs. 5,000–8,000 per semester
5. Freelancing = Earning, Not Spending
This is the biggest money-saver:
Many students are now earning online through:
-
Fiverr
-
Upwork
-
Freelance writing
-
Digital marketing
-
Graphic design
Instead of spending, they now save and support their families using the same laptop.
From cost-saving to income-generating — that’s true impact.
